126 there's the rub
(there's the rub (позднее тж. here lies the rub))вот в чём трудность, тут-то и загвоздка; ≈ вот где собака зарыта [there's the rub шекспировское выражение; см. цитату]Hamlet: "...To die, - to sleep; - To sleep! perchance to dream: - ay, there's the rub. For in that sleep of death what dreams may come... " (W. Shakespeare, ‘Hamlet’, act III, sc. 1) — Гамлет: "...Умереть, уснуть. Уснуть! И видеть сны, быть может? Вот в чем трудность; Какие сны приснятся в смертном сне... " (перевод М. Лозинского)
But then, here lies the rub. The Halcyon frigate is expected here in these parts immediately; when she hears of you she will be at you... (W. Scott, ‘The Pirate’, ch. XXXIV) — Но сложность положения вот в чем: фрегат "Алкион" ожидается здесь с минуты на минуту; когда на нем узнают о том, что вы здесь, то фрегат нападет на вас...
‘Then if you come back you bring her something of value.’ ‘Yes, but that "if". There was the rub.’ (Gr. Greene, ‘The Man Within’, ch. VI) — - Если ты вернешься, привези этой девушке хороший подарок. - Привезу, конечно, но в этом-то "если" вся загвоздка.
The contract confirms the owner in his own concept of his rights: ‘I own the press and I alone will run it. There shall be no meddling by employees or public.’ Or public! Ay, there's the rub. For skillfully buried in this formula lies the little matter of freedom of the press! (G. Marion, ‘Stop the Press!’, ch. 14) — Контракт подтвердил взгляд владельца на его права: "Мне принадлежит печать, и я один буду управлять ею. Никакого вмешательства со стороны служащих и публики". Публика! Вот тут-то и зарыта собака! Именно в этой формуле искусно погребен мелкий вопросец о свободе печати.
